QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:41 PM) Send f***ing Aardsma and MacDougal down to AAA, they both suck. Macdougal actually can't be sent down, so f***ing release his ass, i dont care what he has done in the past or that he is signed till 09, he needs to go. Prinz and Vasquez should be called up. MacDougal should have been placed on the DL weeks ago.

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:40 PM) I want Willams front and center telling me how bad he f***ed up this winter! Let's hope Danks starts throwing well again. If he continues to have bad command, we're really going to have nothing on this 2007 team that KW can say he helped add this offseason.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:38 PM) Boy I had that one pegged didn't I? Ugh. Take the high road. If other people want to bump what you said, let them. Don't take any pride in saying things that come true if you know they'll upset people.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:36 PM) DL MMac. His leg is bother him. Bring up Printz. I've noticed that MacDougal's stride is all messed up. He's overstriding, which is causing him to aim his fastball and have little movement on what used to be a great slider.

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:35 PM) Because Day doesn't belong on a major league roster, and Masset's best role might be as a starter. Which means you want to bring up Oneli Perez or Ryan Bukvich and eat MacDougal's contract? You don't just give up on guys with that type of stuff without trying to figure out what's wrong first. Oneli Perez is bad. Prinz is the best guy to call up, but he's had some shoulder stiffness.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:35 PM) well in all fairness to ozz, he has nothing to work with out of the pen. i don't care what manager you have on the sox bench, these relievers would still be giving up big time runs. Then he needs to stop sticking up for underachieving players (which he always does), and send their ass to the DL or the minors. I hate how both managers of the Chicago teams seem to be making it look like it's all the GM's decision.

I'm still shocked that MacDougal got Overbay out.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:31 PM) So now we are pitching around Aaron Hill? Come on man, our bullpen sucks and it's all Kenny's fault. No matter what we do this pen is going to lose us just about every close game. A lot of things have been Ozzie's fault the last few years but this is not one of them. It's not Ozzie's call to pitch around someone....it's Thornton and Hall who should be smart enough to know the situation.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:30 PM) the pen can't get anyone out. i know in your world "everything is ozzies fault". but come on. Well, Ozzie is the one making the moves out there. s***ty bullpen or not, when he makes a move and it costs us a game, he's going to get the blame as well as the reliever.

Why not pitch carefully to Hill there, who hits lefties well? Lind was on deck, and he's horrific against LHP. They also had just used their only real weapon on the bench.

I don't care if Wells is 0 for his last 100, and Stairs is hitting well....I'll take my chances against Stairs every single time. Ozzie over the last 5 years has made every move imaginable during a game to not let Stairs face us.

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:26 PM) Cubs fans trashing the field again What happened in the game to cause it?

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 06:48 PM) Every situation is different. How about not guessing about every thing and thinking the worst. That would be nice, wouldn't it? Why insult my own intelligence though? It's like people thinking we'll go after ARod this year.

I'm sure glad we left in Thornton to face Hill, who is much better against lefty pitching. How does anyone defend Ozzie anymore? Looks like loss #10 when leading in the 6th inning or later.

My gosh, fire this clown. Of course, Ozzie always does think Matt Stairs is more dangerous than any other hitter in baseball.

Fastball pitcher vs fastball hitter here. MacDougal's slider is the type of pitch that Frank usually struggles with.

Did MacDougal walk Thomas on purpose?

You have to pitch to Frank here. If you face Stairs, and bring in a lefty, then they'll have Wells bat. Ozzie doesn't believe in walking the go-ahead run to the plate anyways.

Did Ozzie really just bring in MacDougal to face a lefty? Good grief!

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:02 PM) Now think of how fast Owens is, and then laugh at how slow Pods has been since the 2nd half of 05. Mackowiak, Ozuna, and Gload were our 3 fastest players last year.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 06:53 PM) Wow that was a pathetic half inning. Thome will be fine, he's just slumping recently. Dye and Konerko are a problem though. Never underestimate how much impact a rib cage/oblique injury can have on a hitter.

I'd be careful about signing Santana to a huge long-term deal also. His velocity is down significantly as well this year, and he is really accumulating a ton of pitches over the last 5 years.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 06:32 PM) Jimmy not looking too good at the plate right now. He's been HORRIBLE besides the game against Colby Lewis.

What happened on the Uribe error? He has had some fielding problems at Toronto in the past.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 05:45 PM) Owens brings something to the table that we didnt really have for awhile. Patience, athleticism, and walks at the top of the order. I saw more of an understanding of how to be a slap hitter by him last night than Pods has shown in years. That grounder he had in the hole that he easily beat us was very pretty.
